Supplements for high Cholesterol anyone?

Had to pay privately for a health check up. Don’t offer them under the NHS in Wales, They advised to speak to my G.P.

I am surprised that your GP has not had a chat with you already.

Ok, thanks every one, will discuss with G.P.

If you take them and have side effects there are others you can try. OH had to change his and now has no unpleasant side effects, I have taken them for two years without any problems at all. If I had had a cholesterol reading as high as yours I wouldn't hesitate to take them.

I refuse to go on Statins. My Dh has been on them for years and his mobility has gradually decreased. His legs are stiff and he can’t walk well.
A few years ago he was playing golf 3 times a week and also playing tennis. Of course the gp and Dh refute my concerns it’s the statins.,

I take cholesterol tabs from Holland and Barrett and benecol yoghurts and spread. Probably doesn’t do much but I’m sticking with it and being careful (to a certain extent) with my diet.

I have tried lots of supplements as I can’t tolerate statins.
Sadly nothing has worked.

If I were you I would take statins. Supplements and diet only have a limited affect.

Why wouldn’t you want statins, they work, millions take them but you only hear of the few that have problems. Surely they would be better than that level of cholesterol.
